Would these work good for a kindergarten class to grow in cotton?

I think they would be great to grow with kindergartners but I have always grown them in a glass sprouting jar. Not sure about the cotton. I don't know how you would rinse them.

Yes most definitely. My children between the ages of 2 and 6 can all use these well.

Definitely not. I am a teacher, bought two of these, I use them, but for "slips of paper"!! Def not big enough for clothes!

I guess they could if your school allows them to be. I have them hanging from my kids ceiling in their room.

I find them to be extremely absorbent! I think they would probably work very well in your classroom. Just remember not to add liquid fabric softener or dryer sheets when you wash them and don't use bleach or dry them on a really high heat. All of these things will negatively effect the fabric. I add a 1/4 to 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the wash water 1

This will do the trick! These are great. This set is excellent for a wide variety they also sell a new sprouts classroom set that may interest you

Yes, I believe this would work well for children looking at seeds and leaves. Great idea!

They are light weight and not meant for attaching to fabric. If it were a light weight cotton it might work, but no guarantee.

They fit the pencil, not the hand, so I think they would work for preschoolers as well. My daughter's hands are still pretty small.

Kindergarten to 1st grade age absolutely. 2nd and 3rd graders will be able to use them, but might not be as conformable. My son is 10 yrs old and he sits in it, but his legs are too long and it don't look very conformable. I would recommend these for a reading corner for kids. It's a great idea! And I think that these will last a while, as long as the kids are not standing or jumping on them of course.

Yes, I use them for grades 4-6. They fit the average kid in this age group. They would swamp a preschooler.

I use them for that purpose too, but it depends on the requirements of the plant. Look up the recommended balance of nutrients and if they are in line with with a 4-4-4 plant food then they will work.

I bought these for my daughter's 3 year old preschool class as a request by her teacher. I wasn't there when they actually used them, but I'm sure they'd be fine for 5-7 year olds.

I am currently using them in my Kindergarten class. They work pretty well in the grass but are wearing out quickly if used on the concrete. One of the most popular toys used.

I have used them for preschool. They aren't super sturdy but they have worked fine for us.

I suppose they would be big enough for kindergarten age kids, as long as they sit still and don't move around. However, you would not be able to have solid edgings on each tile.

Dear Shawn, I used these for a sunday school lesson when I was out of town. I don't know if any of the kids even planted them. Sorry I can't help you. Christine
